I'm a guilty millennial embracing the wave of hybrid employment, student loans, and wearing loungewear to work. If you're like me, there's a seamless transition from bed to office chair in the morning, thanks to remote working (thankfully!). But more often than not, I find myself in pajamas or chic loungewear. I hold to the core belief that what I wear should be a perfect blend of comfort, style and flattering aesthetics. This philosophy informs my loungewear selection, distinguishing between a sloppy appearance and the effortlessly stylish charm of a rom-com protagonist enjoying a cozy day at home.
Here are the carefully curated items I added to my cart, with the aim of achieving the next level of sophistication for the home: a perfect combination of comfort, coziness and cuteness.
